as we get information from the state, which tried to get what the state is using for the state because in the media, things tend to change even faster. we try to turn those reports out on a fairly regular basis. we offered assistance to ems. we offered assistance to the medical mutual aid coordinator. those offers are still out there. we have renewed them, and as this event draws on, we even offered to provide staff some relief for theirs. staffing an eoc for an extended time gets to be a challenge for any jurisdiction. with that, we will continue to monitor this and participate with state conference calls, and if anything arises, we stand ready to act. mayor newsom: now back to the fundamental question. we want to start with that, and i will give pg&e an opportunity to update us in a moment, but the human element should not be lost. god forbid, grace of god go any of us to lose a loved one, to wake up and to learn of someone you care about deeply or know they have lost their life so immediately, so acutely, and so unacceptably. it is devastating, and there are people that survived in

president peterson: i think many of us -- that is ok. i think many of my concerns have been addressed already by my fellow commissioners. -- commissioner hwang: i think this is a difficult case. i am not sure what options we have. my inclination from a process standpoint is to deny the jurisdiction request, but i do think the comments from the public about issues that have been presented are compelling. and i think that the questions on the permit itself, with the absence of an opportunity to really review the plans also creates fundamental issues of fairness. i am not sure we can be in that position to address it. if there is another process here for the requestor to seek real enforcement of the plans, maybe that is the best way to go. vice president goh: i will go ahead and make a motion to grant jurisdiction. >> the vice president's motion to grant jurisdiction. commissioner fung? commissioner fung: this is a tough one. vice president goh: i could make one more comment. that is that we have voted to grant jurisdiction in other cases t

there is no use. they have isolated the area and cut a chunk out of their distribution session -- distribution pattern. it could take years for them to rebuild. in the open hills, there are still open lots from 1991. as homes begin to get rebuilt, they will go in parallel and rebuild the distribution system. we are making ourselves available to help them, but it is not an immediate need. president crowley: anything else? i know you probably possess the answer to this. given the fact that this blast happened, that it did not seismically change our configuration of piping down there, making sure we are not having destruction with leaks or anything else -- we are going to the system as we speak. >> one thing we can immediately check remotely is all of our system pressures in all of our system. there was not even a ripple reflected in the system. the infrastructure we have is the line at that the north coast county water district -- and 8 inch line roughly a quarter mile away. all is fine. all checked out

if you wish to follow up with either of us, please contact us at your convenience. we have known the manabat family for years. we met them almost immediately after we moved there and developed a nice relationship with them. ron and rose are wonderfully nice and good people, and their boys are adorable children. we are aware that they are tenants in common. the manabats have shared with us they are seeking to subdivide the problem in order to refinance, pull out equity and make repairs to their house. we are supportive of their efforts to seek a variance to allow the lot to be split. we were made aware that the variance permit required for the lot split was previously denied. that came as a surprise to us. from our perspective, and we literally have a direct line of sight to the front of the 1120 19th street house. a lot split has no impact on us nor the surrounding neighborhood. the two homes are already physically separated by an existing fence. it is our understanding that the manabats have also agreed to never increase the envelope of the building. given that res

mayor gavin newsom is joining us. this was the summary of the san francisco responds to the san bruno fire. please remember to pass the microphone to the set table when you are speaking. thank you. mayor newsom: thank you all for being here, and i appreciate the outstanding leadership represented here on this table. let me begin by recognizing the obvious or fortuitous in some respects that we had you here today under different circumstances, but nonetheless, now more difficult circumstances. i want to underscore the purpose of this disaster council was always rather self evident and oftentimes needs some elimination -- some illumination to be reminded of its importance. as much as i was reminded of the presence today, it really reinforces the contribution of the commitment to the future because there's no question that we live in interesting times, and the tragic incident of yesterday and the incident that is still unfolding today, and that will continue to impact the lives of hundreds of people and their families fo
